Re: stumped - no variation of pitch!!!

2008-11-30 by Heath Finnie

Hi David,

All three fuses are good and all my supply voltages are there. As I said, I know the KAS 
board is good because I replaced the entire board after this problem started and its still 
there.

I also tried calibrating the KAS board and I'm getting very strange things going on. For 
instance on wire TU the calibration says I should be getting 4.v for a reference voltage but 
I'm getting almost 13v. None of the VR's are doing anything either.
